About Me

I am the oldest of 4 children. Born with hands on my hip and orders flying out of my mouth. I grew up fast. My thoughts swirl in my head over and over before I will post them...mainly due to the fact I can't type or spell very good or is it well?
I have always been the take control organize and plan everything child. Until I had kids...now they take control and they plan everything.
I married the love of my life over 10 years ago. On the days I think of trading him in I remember I must give up my in-laws...I would never do that! I wonder if I could get visitation with them?
I spend most of the days convincing my children that just because your born doesn't mean you "get" to go to Disneyland, have a cell phone or any other snazzy item that will break my bank. I have to count to 20 everyday before I lose my temper and barely make it to 8 before I lose my patience. I have to tell my kids everyday at least 5 times I love them just to try and help them forget how Not so perfect I am.
This is the story of our life...I hope you enjoy and if you don't feel free to email me at Captianclock@aol.com

Camping Season has began in the Vrieling house! We have Property in Lake Stevens where we park our trailer all year round. With Gas prices so high we can still afford to camp :) We enjoy all the activities they offer...Bingo, Golf cart parades, swimming, and so much more.

We had my brother and al my nieces and nephews along with friends and my parents go with us. We had a BBQ on Sunday with tons of family.

The highlight was on Saturday at the swapmeet I got to meet the Captain of the Cornelia Marie Phil Harris from Deadliest Catch. We found that he has a site not far from us. If you do watch that show...You should realy start!

Olivia is not a happy camper........ Matthew found a way to speed up the process of loading the truck...He got his sister's Dora 4-wheeler and then took my antique wagon from the flower bed and off he went.... How can one famly still have so much stuff!?? Carter John was so good! He was a champ...he loved it and did not cry at all.

I have been really busy with field trips and kids and sun and my friends. Jenn turned 31 this month and we celebrated with a girls night out to Poppes for dinner & drinks. Jenn has been my bestfriend for almost 20 years! YIKES!

It seems just like yesterday she moved form Bellingham to Lynden and well if she tells you the story we did not hit it off really good...Come 7th grade we managed to be friends and more high school drama to follow we managed to remain friends...She will always be my best friend...

Carter turned 3 months!! He is so sweet and very laid back. He has to be in order to keep up with us. He started to wake up 2 times a night to eat...We are trying to fix that. He loves his swing and started laughing outloud.

He can't wait to have his own room! Okay, we can't wait...maybe then every little peep won't keep me wide awake.

The flash gives him " crazy" eyes..... I tried to get him smilin...maybe next time
